Sabrina, like Michelle, has zero personality. People want to follow someone with some charisma. Even Angelina Jolie looked good in St. John's..even though she was more of a jeans and t-shirt dresser..because she has personality and not just a figure where some clothes are draped from. I don't see black women storming J. Crew because of Michelle Obama.

I'm still laughing about this commentator on CNN (a pretty black lady, forget her name) she was daily going on about Gay and how the jurors couldn't keep their eyes off him! She has a mad crush on him and one of the male commentators called her out on it. Was funny as hell. Anyway, she was always insinuating his looks were going to somehow sway the jurors. Way to insult a woman's intelligence.

eclectic, I'm sure they won't alienate you for long. People like that just jumped on the bandwagon. I see it all over the place on social media. None of them even know the facts. I keep reading "he was scared and just trying to get home after a candy run!" Meanwhile, you were here for like a year and knew all the facts. Give it a couple weeks and they will forget.

A friend on FB posted one of her friends made a post about Zimmerman, giving his old address and saying go there..you know what to do. She removed the person from her friends. Then these same people want to claim the high-road. Freaking laughable.

Rioting, smashed windows, fires and a damaged police car. Figures. So funny, I was watching CNN last night and a commentator said he was hearing reactions from the pro-TM crowd..that they can't believe a black kid can't walk the streets without fear of getting shot. ummmm hello? They shoot eachother up all the time here in Chi.

So true, Patti and Rowwdy. Yeah, hung jury jeeez. Maybe they are all gossiping about Gay! You know eclectic would be ;)

I haven't paid much attention to the outside noise. I saw on HuffPost today..they don't even have this trial as a headline and the one story I saw down the front page...there were only like 126 comments this afternoon. I think for the most part, people just lost interest.
